Night 0 Begins.

There will be no kill actions tonight [All other actions are allowed, though]. Instead, the two mafia parties and the historian and send messages to the moderator. These messages can either be relayed to everyone via a public announcement, or can be targeted to a specific individual. Messages cannot be tracked. If you choose not to send a message, please send me a PM stating so.

I am the Journalist. I was born in the year 2273. I am a child of the nuclear holocaust, the fallout generation. This is my story.

It all started before I was born. Honestly, it all started before history can even recall. Much of it was lost during the war. There are still murmurs of the past here and there, passed down from the prewar generation. I’ve heard talks of at least 3 great wars, world wars I believe. I’ve heard of an Earth filled with luscious forests, eloquently layered with all shades of green. Rumor has it that even the sky was once a beautiful gradient of blue with clouds like bleached cotton, instead of the bleak grey overcast that has loomed over my head since birth. It is impressive what literal tons of nuclear explosives can sanitise in a matter of hours.

But I digress.

I am currently located in the remains of Denver, taking refuge in one of the nuclear shelters built before the war. There are others with me. We are caught between an altercation between two fractions. They call themselves the Augments and the Revolutionists. For the past month, they have been slowly picking each other off. But now, it seems they have drawn their attention onto us. I do not know why, and I am scared.

I have sent a distress call, but there has been no answer. I will keep sending it, but I’m afraid we are on our own.Until next time.

All transmissions are backed on quantum glass and are able to withstand a nuclear blast.

Yesterday’s airspace was crammed with a message from “This Historian” (or at least, that’s who I think sent it. “HI𐡁TO𐡁IAN” looks like Historian to me.) Most of the message was garbage, with only a few characters that came through. All I can say is that it was relatively short, and kept repeating the same phrase over and over again. It could be a warning. Or it could be some crazy resident who is bored out of his mind. I am not sure which one is worse, to be honest.

There is still no more word on who the Revolutionists and the Augments are. They sometimes send unencrypted messages through the air, mostly about when meetings will occur. A few hours ago, I intercepted a message that said “place 3 at time 25 - R” Unfortunately, I cannot for the life of me begin to decipher what a place 3 is or when time 25 is. Or even if it actually means places or times. But other than these messages, everything has been pretty quiet…

My cries for help the other day have been left unanswered. Well, at least unanswered in the traditional sense. It did attract one individual, though. He says his transport “broke” in Brighton, CO. He says he was on his way from Minnesota and heading to Las Vegas (a popular site for refugees from what I hear) and that’s when the attack came. From his story, it seems like he was attacked by Cyborgs; They probably wanted to cannibalise the electronics. The rest of the transportees didn’t make it, including his pregnant wife. Luckily he still had his emergency distress device (EDD) when he escaped, and it picked up on my distress signal a few days after the incident. I feel bad for the man, really, I do. I wish there was more I could help him with, when all I can do is offer him somewhere to stay.

There is nothing more I feel the need to say today, so until next time.

I've decided to be more organized during this Mafia game because of the difference of format. Therefore, I will break every day into small chunks that must be discussed.

Well, let's act on what we have - a message from the Historian.

In my opinion, discussing about what it could be is pointless, for it can be something useless - and we might lose time that should be put to better use. I believe that we should proceed with some other important discussions, such as determine who should we go for today when making a lynch or not.
